UNC Offers 5'9" Athlete Ryan Switzer

Posted Feb 14, 2012
With news breaking the UNC has offered 2013 athlete Ryan Switzer, we’ve teamed up with Victory Bell Rings the Networks PSU site. Their editor Tim Tolley was fortunate enough to catch up with Switzer recently. This is what Switzer had to say about his UNC recruitment: “both of my parents’ families are from North Carolina and it’s like a 2nd home to us.” At 5’8?(ish) and 170 lbs, it’s not a mystery why people are curious, but the fact that Switzer has offers from Penn State, Ohio State, Florida State and now West Virginia means that some people must not be worried about it.
